Now you see why I'm not scared to die
I saw a vision of an angel of the world lay down and die
The earth is full of ghosts now
Ghosts that sweat and ghosts that cry
Instead of peace just stop and cease
A final end, a sweet release

The language of love is the language of liars
The flames of all love become funeral pyres
Smoke gets in your eyes and grown men cry
I see young men led to an early grave and old men pray to die
The earth is full of ghosts now
Ghosts that sweat and ghosts that cry
Instead of peace just stop and cease
A final end, a sweet release

The shipwreck to the shore
From the client to the whore
From the shadow to the sun
From the bullet to the gun
The earth is full of ghosts now
Ghosts that sweat and ghosts that cry
Instead of peace just stop and cease
A final end, a sweet release

The moment you discover that your killer is your lover
I kill all that I love, I just destroy what I become
The earth is full of ghosts now
Ghosts that sweat and ghosts that cry
Instead of peace just stop and cease
A final end, a sweet release

It's my birthday and I'll cry if I want too
Cry if I want too
Cry if I want too

You would cry too if it happened to you.

There's a prophet on a mountain and he's making up dinner
With long division and writing crop
Anybody can feel like a winner
When it's served up piping hot

But the people aren't looking for a handout
They're America's working corps
Can this be what they voted for?

Let them eat war
Let them eat war
That's how to ration the poor
Let them eat war
Let them eat war

There's an urgent need to feed
Declining pride

From the force to the union shops
The war economy is making new jobs
But the people who benefit most
Are breaking bread with their benevolent hosts

Who never stole from the rich to give to the poor
All they ever gave to them was a war
And a foreign enemy to deplore

Let them eat war
Let them eat war
That's how to ration the poor
Let them eat war
Let them eat war

There's an urgent need to feed
Declining pride

We've got to kill 'em and eat 'em
Before they reach for their checks
Squeeze some blue collars
Let them bleed from their necks
Seize a few dollars from the people who sweat
Cause it's freedom or death and they won't question it
At a job site the boss is god like
Conditioned workhorses park at a stoplight
Seasoned vets with their feet in nets
A stones throw away from a rock fight
But not tonight, feed ‘em death

Here comes another ration (feed them death)
Cause they're the finest in the nation (feed them death)
When there's nothing left to feed them
When it's freedom or it's death

Let them eat war
Let them eat war
That's how to ration the poor
Let them eat war
Let them eat war

There's an urgent need to feed

"why are you so far away?" she said
"why won't you ever know that i'm in love with you
That i'm in love with you"

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl i loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

Take me with you on this journey
Where the boundaries of time are now tossed
In cathedrals of the forest
In the words of the tongues now lost

Find the answers, ask the questions
Find the roots of an ancient tree
Take me dancing, take me singing
I'll ride on till the moon meets the sea

Beware
Of his promise
Believe
What I say
Before
I go forever
Be sure
Of what you say

So he paints a pretty picture
And he tells you that he needs you
And he covers you with flowers
And he always keeps you dreaming
If he always keeps you dreaming
You won't have a lonely hour
If a day could last forever
You might like your ivory tower

But the night begins to turn your head around
And you know you're gonna lose more than you found
Yeah the night begins to turn your head around

Beware
Of his promise
Believe
What I say
Before
I go forever
Be sure
Of what you say

For the words may come too easy
If you don't believe I'm leaving
And goodbye will come too quickly
If you really think he loves you
If you really think he loves you
You would give your love so sweetly
If that day could last forever
You would fall in love completely

But the night begins to turn your head around
And you know you're gonna lose more than you found
Yeah the night begins to turn your head around

But the night begins to turn your head around
And you know you're gonna lose more than you found
Yeah the night begins to turn your head around
And you know you're gonna lose more than you found
Oh the night begins to turn your head around
Yeah, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night
Yeah, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night, the night
Oh the night begins to turn your head around

That goes to show how little you know.

You wake up to the sound of alarms
And you're driving your fabulous car
Listening to the music that reminds you
You used to be young
You used to be young

And now you're searching for a sign with your name
To define you the king of the game
What will you do when there's nothing left
For you to earn
And for you to learn?

So dose me up
Once is not enough
I can still see the ground
And from this high-rise view
Looking down on you
I'm not the one wasting my time

if i make it tonight it'll be all right
it'll make a good song or something
i've been trying to give myself reasons to live
and i really can't think of one thing

i drive around, i walk around in circles
'cause i've got no sense of direction
and i guess i've got no sense at all

[chorus:]
all the umbrellas in london couldn't stop this rain
and all the dope in new york couldn't kill this pain
and all the money in tokyo couldn't make me stay
all the umbrellas in london couldn't stop this rain

i don't cry anymore, i go out the door
and i usually keep on walking
i will sit in the bar where the cocktails are
but i really don't feel like talking

i lie around and let the darkness fall
'cause i've got a sense of perfection
and nothing makes much sense at all

and I don't know what to do!
you look at me and see right through
who the hell are you?

whenever I look at you, I don't know what to do!
whenever you talk to me, I don't know what is true!

I'm infatuated.
It's all too much - the pressure!
She's all that I can take.
What position should I wear?
Cop an attitude? (You faker!)
How can I convince her? (Faker!)
That I'm invented too?
Yeah.

I am smitten.
I'm the real thing. (I'm the real thing)
We all invent ourselves
and, uh, you know me.

Yeah, she's a sad tomato.
She's three miles of bad road.
She's her own invention. (She's her own invention)
That gets me in the throat
What can I make myself be?
Life is strange, yeah. (Life is strange.)
What can I make myself be, fake her,
To make her mine?

But I have a little problem wit you not fucking me

[verse 2:]

Yo! so I glanced at the girls, girls glanced at me
I whispered in their ear, wana be with me?
You wana look pretty though, in my video
Ol' dirty on the hat and I let you all know
Just dance! if you caught up in the holy ghost trance
If you stop! ima put the killer ants in your pants
I'm the O-D-B as you can see
Every eye, don't you be watching me
I don't want no problems cause I put you down
In the ground where you can not be found

Yo, yo!
Nigga playing in the club like this all night
Bitches put your ass out let me hold it tight
You looking at my wrist saying "its so nice"
The price bitch is diamonds shining disco light
You better help me solve this problem
Or ima get this money and rob them
Lucky dig when I won the lotto
Ran up on my car for carrying (ryllos?)
You can call me dirty, and then lift up your skirt
And you want some of this dirty, god made dirt and dirt bust yo ass
Stop annoying me, yeah! I play my music loud
It takes the bastard ol' dirty, to move the crowd
They say he had his dick in his mouth
Eddie Murphy told me that back in the house
But give me my money!

Queens of the Stone Age - Tangled Up In Plaid



I slipped,

Didn't mean to do it that way.

But I blew in on a whim, gone tomorrow?

I'm gone today



Come,

Lets play along and let each other lose

A win would cause an alarm

Don't matter to me

Doesn't matter to you



I could keep you all for myself

I know

You gotta be free

So free yourself



A self-inflicted wound, your Gift,

Impeccable aim

Can really clear a room

All the bodies piled up in your way



OH YEAH IT HURTS

OH YEAH IT MUST



I could keep you all for myself

I know

You gotta be free

So free yourself

from all the drugs the one I like more is music
from all the junks the one I need more is music
from all the boys the one I take home is music
from all the ladies
the one I kiss is music

music is my boyfriend!
music is my girlfriend!
music is my dead end!
music's my imaginary friend
music is my brother!
music is my great-grand-daughter
music is my sister!
music is my favourite mistress

from all the shit the one I gotta buy is music
from all the jobs the one I choose is music
from all the drinks I get drunk off music
from all the bitches
the one I wanna be is music

music is my beach house!
music is my home town
music is my king-size bed!
music's where I meet my friends
music is my hot hot bath!
music is my hot hot sex
music is my back rub!
my music is where I'd like you to touch

I see you looking at me
across the club you're dancing
I wanna be your man but they say I have no chancing
I move across the dance floor
and now you're dancing with me
I try to keep my cool but your eyes just make me dizzy

Let's do some drinkin' kinkin'
Let's do some smokin' cokin'
you say you've got a man well
you must be joking
no girl I don't believe you
because your eyes betray you
no girl I won't deceive you
and no I will not play you

you are so sexy baby
and so mysterious
you know you drive me crazy
your love is a murderfuck

And now we're dancing faster
so close our bodies touching
and now my heart is racing
feels like we're starting something
Then you lean in to kiss me
and then I wake up screaming
alone in my hotel room
Girl, was I only dreaming?

you are so sexy baby
and so mysterious
you know you drive me crazy
your love is a murderfuck

you are so sexy baby
you get so messy baby
your body drives me crazy
your love is a murderfuck

Daybreak
Strange shapes on the horizon obscure the sun
I said what have we done
Men clambered ashore, it was a one-sided, self-righteous war
"Your shark", they swore, "he is no more"

Oh Shark, since the sun has refused to rise
To wake is an unwelcome surprise
The trees no longer recognise their fruit
The trees no longer recognise their fruit
Oh Shark what have we done?
What have you done with the sun?

You put the sun before the darkness
Is this the winter of our fall?
You put the summer before the darkness
Is this the winter of our fall?

Oh Shark, who is this God
Before whom every man is made to cower
I feel ashamed, and the simple things come harder now
I doubt my legs, my words, my every move

Oh Shark, I called down into the sea
But I have lost your soul and you would not answer me
Oh Shark, I prayed unto the sea
To deliver you unto me
But the waters lay still, they would not part
I lost hope, I lost heart
My friend the Shark

You put the sun before the darkness
Is this the winter of our fall?
You put the summer before the darkness
Is this the winter of our fall?
You put the sun before the darkness
Is this the winter of our fall?
You put the summer before the darkness
Is this the winter of our fall?

Wait a minute now, I'll see you when I come back
I could be sharing someone else's pillow
And my love for you is better than diamonds
To you, everything I bestow

And tomorrow, I'll be dancin' on my own
And I'll need a kiss for my head that's achin'
And I'll be a hungry dog without a bone
Hoping my place with you's not taken

Kiss me and tell me it's not broken
Kiss me and kiss me 'til I'm dead
See, I give you the stars from the bruised evening sky
And a crown of jewels for your head now
For your head now
For your head now
For your head

One last night in bed for a time
And two more wishes and both are for thine
And three guesses, you're the angel's child
Four hopes that this love's not spoiled

Kiss me and tell me it's not broken
Kiss me and kiss me 'til I'm dead
See, I give you the stars from the bruised evening sky
And a crown of jewels for your head now
For your head now
For your head now
For your head now

And if you come back, I'll take you to the garden
We'll dance to an orchestra on the lawn
And we roll in the foggy dew
And dance with the ghosts upon
the dawn and on the dawn and on the dawn

Then you'll kiss me and tell me it's not broken
Kiss me and kiss me 'til I'm dead
See, I give you the stars from the bruised evening sky
And a crown of jewels for your head now
For your head now
And for your head now
For your head now
For your head now
For your head

And am I born to die
And lay this body down
And as my trembling spirits fly
Into a world unknown

A land of deeper shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary region of the dead
Where all things are forgot

Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my fortune be

Waked by the trumpet sound
I from my grave shall rise
And see the judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming skies

Anything from Kate Bush's new album, but particularly:

I think I see you standing outside
But it's just your shirt
Hanging on the washing line
Waving its arm as the wind blows by
And it looks so alive
Nice and white
Just like it's climbed right out
of my washing machine
Washing machine
Washing machine

&

Eye of Braille
Hem of anorak
Stem of wallflower
Hair of doormat
Is that the wind from the desert song?
Is that an autumn leaf falling?
Or is that you, walking home?

&

All the banners stop waving
And the flags stop flying
And the silence comes over
Thousands of soldiers
Thousands of soldiers

Who is that girl? Do I know her face?

&

We went up to the to pf the highest hill
and stopped
Still
It was just so beautiful
It was just so beautiful
It was just so beautiful

If love is good, let's get 2 rammin'
U got the look, U got the look

Look here
U got the look (U got the look)
U must'atook (U must'a took)
A whole hour just 2 make up your face, baby
Closin' time, ugly lights, everybody's inspected (everybody's inspected)

So sick and tired of your bitching and complaining
So long you've been oppressed while others lives are gaining
Want reparations, you're needy and deserving
Can't understand why some are served while you're doing the
serving
Anything but responsibility
Where's my slice?
I want more than equal rights
I want everything for free!
You waste your time concerned with what others are earning
You want a revolution to start the tables turning
A demonstration to make a better nation
We'll spend the day protesting all the problems that we're
facing
Anything but face reality
Where's my slice?
I want more than equal rights
I want everything for free!
Your brilliant theory
How the world owes you a living
You'll take away from others
The things they should be giving
They own the pie and you want your share
Whoever told you life was fair?
You were dealt your hand - now play it

Trapped in a ceaseless fever of spite,
an unending fit of resentment and anger
Caught in a moment of unforgiveness
In the snapshot of a hate filled second

The speechless flickering of uncomprehending eyes
-Dilated in disbelief
Your vacant gaze distorted
Twisted in its accusing glare

Teeth glimmering in emotional rage
Spit of hate suspended in mid-air
Bodies strained in fury
Devoured by jaws of despair

One single image frame I wish to forget
now replayed in succession of millions
The one second I will always regret
-My hell found in its reiteration

Held within the visualization,
the continuous rerun of my own violence
A fraction of time perpetuated
By my regretful soul animated

Please forgive the evil in me - The darkness within
Ferocious, inherent demon. Adrenaline gland resident

Threatened subconscious snake. Repressed into
striking coil

She spread herself wide open to let the insects in
She leaves a trail of honey to show me where shes been
She has the blood of reptile just underneath her skin
Seeds from a thousand others drip down from within
Oh my beautiful liar
Oh my precious whore
My disease my infection
I am so impure
Devils speak of the ways in which shell manifest
Angels bleed from the tainted touch of my caress
Need to contaminate to alleviate this loneliness
I now know the depths I reach are limitless
Oh my beautiful liar
Oh my precious whore
My disease my infection
I am so impure

But I had not the heart to forbid it.

Little Rabbit Froo Froo
Running through the forest
Scooping up the fieldmice
And bopping them on the head

When down came a goollie bird who said,

"Little Rabbit Froo Froo
I don't want to see you
Scooping up the fieldmice
And bopping them on the head

SO STOP, BOPPERTY-BOP!"


Sung countless times daily.
Well you did ask.

No idea about goolie birds. I'm singing this to ten month olds, so they're not really worried either. Learnt it off my neighbours daughter... I'll ask.

tell everybody waiting for Superman
that they should try to hold on as best they can

he hasn't dropped them forgot them or anything
it's just too heavy for Superman to fix

Made me cry today when I heard it again.
Wish I was a superhero.
